I would like to gradualy take lower the _alpha from 100 - 0 through actionscript. I found this in the actionscript archive of Kirupa.
function disappear(){
//call onEnterFrame dynamic event handler
_root["clip1"].onEnterFrame = function(){
//decrement alpha by 5
[code]....
can i use this to target an instance ? how would I do it if the instance is id_mc and it is in the _parent.
I have used the script below to load the mp3 file, but I couldn't do what I used to when I imported the mp3file to stage and I did it there. Is there a way to place fadeout at the end of the music and make the sound lower and lower, is there a way to apply something like that via Action Script?
mySound=new Sound();
mySound.loadSound("sommeu.mp3",true);
mySound.start(0,0);
[URL] i want the object to fade out but in the object there's a lot of overlapping pictures and each becomes half transparent. how to make the movieclip to change the alpha as it was without objects?
[Code]....
just spotted this curious trick. If you want to flip something to go invisible on a click, and then reappear on another click (etc etc), try this:
create the sprite, setting alpha to either to 1 OR -1
mySprite.alpha=1; //OR
mySprite.aplha=-1;
[code]....
using AS, on loading a movie a solid shape is there with alpha at 100% then over a period of 5 secs its alpha is reduced to 0.
i'm new to this......please help if you want to if you don't have a good weekend but think of me struggling onwards and upwards...
I have 30 values coming from an xml file, and I need to programatically find out which of them is the lowest, then I need also to find out exactly where it is located, so I can get the value that is located next. What I mean is:
Let's suppose that on the following xml, Cat2 is the lowest value, I need not only to print Cat2, but also Dog1. So, I will need to find out how to get Dog1 knowing that Cat2 is the lowest value.
<xml>
<1>
<a>
Dog

I'm working with Adobe Flash CS4. designing website it's a tour guide so it has a lots of pictures in it that's making the file too large so when i test it takes awful long time or doesn't shows me anything at all.

View 6 RepliesI normally work with print design but am designing some flash banners for a client. Just have some questions about file size.My current banner is 125kb but they want it under 25kb. Is that practical for a flash banner?Also, I have done tests with import options and it looks like if I import my artwork as an .ai file and convert to symbol then it gives a lower file size than importing as a png or jpg.How can I make my file size lower? I know it's hard to answer without seeing the file but is there an option similar to 'save for web' in photoshop where I can adjust the quality to reduce file size?
View 1 RepliesI'm try to lower the contrast of a movieClip, but it seems to have no effect. contrast, saturation, brightness do nothing.
My Code:
var bobRun:MovieClip = new bobRunning(); addChild(bobRun); bobRun.scaleX = .45; bobRun.scaleY = .45; bobRun.x = 350; bobRun.y = 30; bobRun.contrast = -100;bobRun.saturation = -100;bobRun.brightness = -100;
So, I had a problem animating a movie clip on mouseover which was solved here: http://forums.adobe.com/thread/496745?tstart=0 Now the problem I'm having is that I want to movie some of those clips to a lower layer so that they animate behind an object on the top layer.If I put the same code on that bottom layer as in the top layer,
leaf.addEventListener(MouseEvent.ROLL_OVER,doStartAnim);
it tells me that I have a duplicate function definition.If I cut out the second half of the code,
function doStartAnim(e:MouseEvent):void {
e.currentTarget.play();
e.currentTarget.removeEventListener(MouseEvent.ROLL_OVER,doStartAnim) ;
}
and just put that other part it doesn't give me the error, but mousing over the leaf does nothing. Any thoughts?
P.S. - If I leave the entire code for the movie on the top layer (with the movie on a seperate background layer) I get the following error:
Description: 1120: Access of undefined property leaf5. Source: leaf5.addEventListener(MouseEvent.ROLL_OVER,doStartAnim);I hope that all makes sense!

View 6 RepliesI was wondering is there a way that I can receive stream on my broadcast server and then republish that stream with lower quality on the same broadcast server. I was reading server side API reference but I couldnt find anything like that.Only thing I found is to use %i in FMLE Stream field and then broadcast same stream with different bitrates, but can I take live stream that is being broadcasted and republish it with lower quality/bitrate on the server side somehow?

However, I also want the bottom corners to have a radius.
I'm developing an AIR app that is receiving TUIO events from a Framework for a fiducial marker based multitouch table. Until yesterday I was faking the events by mouse to work faster, but then I connected everything to a TUIO simulator and the problems appeared.
The TUIO Simulator is a java app. By dragging markers on the simulator you can send OSC messages that I'm forwarding to my AIR app. The problem is that I'm noticing that when I drag something on the simulator, my AIR app lose the focus, and the AIR framerate suddendly drops. If I drag something on my simulator and I switch super fast to the AIR window, everything goes smooth, so it seems the problem is that if my AIR app is not the active app it's redrawn at a lower framerate (I remember reading something about this, not sure).
So my questions are: am I right about the fact that inactive windows in AIR are redrawn at lower framerate? do you have any workaround to fix it and to allow me to interactive with the java app without my AIR framerate drops?
I have two layers in my flash cs4. Lower layer contains pink color random brush strokes. The upper layer contains black rectangle. I am able to see the pink color brush strokes through my black rectangle as if I have reduced the alpha of the rectangle?
View 2 RepliesI have an image contained within a slideshow with a rollover attached to it, when you click the image a larger image within the same movie clip appears. This layer is below my navigation layers for my website so when I click on the image it is below some of the navigation layers and logo. Is there a way to make this appear on top of all of the other layers without actually moving the layer up. I'm using Flash CS3 and Actionscript 3.0.

I have to build an Adobe AIR application with the Namespace 2.6. The problem is, I recently downloaded Flash Builder 4.6 onto a new computer, and it requires the Namespace to be 3.1. Otherwise, it throws an error. The only solutions I can find online are to change the Namespace in the app.xml file to 3.1. This however causes issues later on when I try to Code-sign the application.The easiest fix would be to make Flash Builder build the application with Namespace 2.6.

View 1 RepliesI'm working on a test where the user must find specific error keywords on a document and click on them to identify them as errors. After they click on an error, a movieclip popup displays to tell them they did a good job and explain why the error is an error.
On the movieclip that pops up, I've got a standard X close button to kill the movieclip. The problem is, when you click on the close button, the 20 buttons on the document below are still active, and can still be clicked on. Is there a simple way to disable them all, but only when a popup movieclip is being displayed?
I have a loaded movieClip on _level1. In that movieClip on the main timeline I have a for loop that enables 20 movieClips on _level0. I want to lower the quality of the 20 movieClips but everything on _level0 is affected with this.

Hiya, I am learning loading movie clips dynamically using the loadMovieNum() function but have run into a problem. When I load a movie into the next layer up from the current movie I still get the hand appearing over where the buttons from the movie on the lower level are (though the lower level movie and its buttons are not visible).
Is there any way I can stop this happening or am I going about things the wrong way?

I have a web site with an intro movie playing in the page's header.
The SWF playing the FLV with sound is in a division that is placed at a lower Z level. On top of the SWF, at a higher Z level, is a png image of my header containing an oval transparent window. This image acts as a skin sitting on top of my movie. The movie and sound play inside the oval window fine. I have other reasons for this approach as opposed to integrating the whole header image into the SWF.
The issue is I have no mouse control over the SWF because it is at a lower Z level. The mouse events are blocked by the transparent image window that sits on top.
I want to add a sound volume control to my movie. The control can sit either inside the oval area, or outside somewhere else on the page.
I would prefer to control the volume using another SWF that sits at the normal Z level where the mouse can work. Can one SWF control another?
Other alternatives might be to use Javascript, or even HTML image tags to control my SWF.
